Newer engines, up to 200,000km I would run a good quality 10W-40. Above 200,000 I would consider running a 15W-40. As for brands, I would recommend either Penrite or Nulon. Before oil changes make sure you run an oil flush like http://www.nulon.com.au/products/Engine_Treatments/Engine_Oil_Flush/. The 5S is fairly prone to sludge so it a good idea to give it a flush.

Are there any fully synthetic 10w-40 on the market?

Where can I find them and how much am I looking at?

Thanks man,

would you run 10w-40 in a 1996 5S-FE that's done 160k kms?

I've found Penrite Everyday 10w-40 Fully Synthetic at supercheap... too bad they don't stock the Enviro+ / HPR or Performance variants..

Go to a different one - I've found HPR at SCA before heaps of times, it's not like it's Royal Purple or anything.

Likewise, I also ran SIN for about 12 months before building the engine I have now.

Here's a comparison of my engine vs a typically sludged 5S-FE. I put it down to good maintenance and running a good quality oil.

Thanks mate, I've only been looking at their online website. Will take a look physically if I have the time.

Does 10w-40 sound right for 160k km, Sydney weather? :blush:

Yes, it is fine.

Sydney's weather is no where near cold or hot enough to make any difference.

Dam, I can only hope the gizzards of mine aren't anywhere like that.. can't do anything to reverse the sludge if it's already forming :wacko:

Yes, it is fine.

Thanks, missed your previous post !

Can I use Penrite HPR10 10w50 (Full Synthetic) for 5sfe engine?

any Pros and Cons?

I bought 99' Camry at last year. At the beginning there is no oil leakage,

but just after first service from local mechanic (he use Volvoline) oil start leaking from driver side.

Thus is why I'm thinking of 10w50.

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
